All Saints Day

Today for All Saints Day, a holiday which I have never heard of before, at my Catholic organization I decided to listen to a Unitarian Universalist sermon on service. In this UU sermon, the minister quoted a Catholic Saint who spoke about what all saints must do in order to reach sainthood. How ironic.


"St. John of the Cross, a Spanish mystic and Catholic Saint said, 'I saw the river over which all saints must pass and the name of that river is suffering. I saw the boat in which they cross and the name of that boat is love.'"

Good quote to think about, regardless of whether or not you're celebrating All Saints Day.
